It's Great to be 8!

 My Nick-o is 8 years old.  The long awaited 8th birthday!  We are so excited for him to be baptized this weekend.  The kids were up around 6 am awaiting the time to see Nick open his presents.  Nick got a ripstick and clothes!  He was excited to get his Uof U sweatshirt, shirt, and hat.  He is getting better at the ripstick everyday.

We went to see Megamind that night and then to dinner at RockCreek Pizza.  Some of the cousins met up with us too.

Nick, you are so much fun to have in our family.  You are so busy and sometimes I wish you could be little again and we could just lay on the couch and take naps together!  It is so fun to hear you speak Spanish and see how quickly you are picking up on it.  You are doing great at learning to play the guitar with your dad and the little songs you are learning on the piano.  I am so excited for you to be baptized this weekend!  Love you Nicholas!
